Thanks Wireman, have done that.

Thanks James, the one metal pipe that is attached to the engine has a cone and female screw on coupling, the ones that I have that do not fit have flare and o ring and male connector.

Thanks for that Wireman, much appreciated.

Thanks for that. Cheers, Andy.

The 19J turned up when I was looking for a replacement engine a year or so back and thought it would do the job without too many complications, although the oil cooler problem has reared its ugly head!. As you say pipes for a 19J rad will fit a 19J engine but told by Paddock that it depends on...

Thanks Bluedog, yes probably the best option, will look into it. Cheers, Andy.

Hi All, long term rebuild of my early 90 and fitting a 19J turbo engine. Need a new rad and Paddock have a NTC6168 to fit a 19J but will not advise on "conversions" so will not recommend pipes. Do have some that have the wrong fittings to the engine, they need to be female. Anyone out there done...

Hi, anyone coming to Wales with room for 4 Landy wheels and tyres would be appreciated. I am close to Cardigan, but can meet most of South Wales. Cheers, Andy. Thanks for those that looked, this is now sorted, can't find a delete button!

Hi, I run 16" Disco alloys on my Defender, but not having a matching spare I have a 15" with higher profile tyre that has the same overall circumference as the 16". Take a piece of string and measure around middle of tread on both wheels. if they are the same there should be no problem. Regards...

Had a problem similar to yours on a Montego TD. What was happening was diesel was getting into the sump, I think via lft pump and raising level of oil. When it got to a certain level it was just sucked up into the inlet. Quite spectacular! Keep checking oil level to see if its going up instead...

Thanks, does have that type of sound, will check oil but pretty sure that is ok.

Getting an annoying noise that seems to come from the top of the gearbox, a kind of tinkling sound that sounds like something is loose, but not in the oily part of the box as it's too metallic. This develops into a bit of an intermittent screech generally when power is on. The tinkling sound...

Nice one, brings back memories, my series one is leaning against the barn wall in kit form!

Looking good, what does the Landy look like? Second thoughts, fkcu the Landy!

But did you have a back up for the school run if the Disco was stuck in the mud somewhere?

Just been looking at the pics of LRs in all sorts of conditions, but none of them are bog standard as issued! Me and a mate used to go out on a Sunday morning green laning in the early 70s trying to get through all sorts of sh*t hoping that both of us wouldn't get stuck at the same time. Mine...

Hi, looking for a set of wheel nuts (20) to fit a set of alloys from a Disco to my 90. They need to be the type with a sleeve that goes thru the hole, not fussed about condition, just have to work! Cheers, Andy. Looks like I've found a set, how the hell do I remove this thread? Gone to...

This now applies to this coming week - Help!

Anyone coming to Wales from Portsmouth area with room for heavy load of Model Engineer magazines this coming week (25th April) ? I am near Cardigan but could rendezvous most of South To Mid Wales. Would be much appreciated.

Thanks Ian, may try that. Best, Andy
